Gosh, just a few weeks after a car skidded across Kinnessburn Road and ended up in the Kinness Burn in #StAndrews, yet another car has taken the plunge. Must have been very frightening experience. Hope all ok (pics c/o St A Photo Corner) pic.twitter.com/gfq75tGy2Q

Second crash at Kinness Burn this year
It is the second incident involving a car crashing into the Kinness Burn this year.
On Thursday, January 7 a BMW was left balancing over the watercourse after smashing through the barriers on Kinnessburn Road.
No one was injured in the incident, which occurred following a spell of cold weather.
It comes just days after the watercourse was labelled the “Irn Bru Burn”, drawing comparisons to Willy Wonka’s chocolate river, after contamination turned it orange.
